“My mom and I stayed at the Carlisle House Inn and it was nothing short of lovely. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed and cared for. One of our favorite touches was the complimentary s’mores night—complete with cozy blankets and a beautifully maintained fire pit out back. It created the perfect atmosphere to unwind.

The rooms were pristine—immaculately clean, thoughtfully designed, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail reflected the care the staff puts into maintaining the inn.

The hospitality throughout our stay was outstanding. Everyone we interacted with was kind, helpful, and genuinely attentive. Breakfast each morning was just right—fresh, delicious, and served in a relaxed, inviting setting.

The location was also ideal—less than a 10-minute walk from the center of town, and just a 20-minute walk to Jetties Beach. It was the perfect balance of peaceful and convenient.

This inn is a true gem on Nantucket. We’re already talking about coming back!”

“The moment we stepped into the 7 Sea Street Inn, it felt like we had found a little piece of heaven. The charm of the place wrapped around us instantly, and each morning we were greeted by a breakfast that was both comforting and exquisite—every dish touched with a bit of gourmet magic.”

“Would have loved to give them a five out of five but unfortunately they drop the ball on breakfast. You were lucky to find an apple or an orange for fruit and nothing else. A place of this caliber if you're going to do a continental breakfast do it right make an assortment of fresh fruit available and healthy granola cereal.The other thing provide quality stronger coffee made in a quality percolator. Small things that can make a major difference in the start of your guests day.Other than that service was exceptional the building was exceptional The free bicycles were exceptional the location was exceptional!Our room didn't have a fridge but when we asked about it they had a guy move one in for us.Didn't hear any sounds in our room very quiet.We would return and hope they will step up their game for breakfast.”

“Great place to stay in Nantucket! My room was clean and adorable; only nitpicks were that the bathroom was across the hall (which I was expecting) and there was no elevator up to my room. Only access was 2 sets of steep staircases. Understandable, since the hotel was in a converted historical building. Outside of that, my stay was great. Breakfast was a nice mix of pastries and some protein. Location was perfect - close to lots of shops and restaurants in the center of town. Sleep quality was good. No noise from the street. I would not hesitate to stay here again!”

“We really enjoyed our stay! Monica was very friendly and helpful! Loved the location, very quiet, yet close to town. So glad they take dogs-our black lab loved ACK!!!”

“Every detail of my mom and I’s stay here was perfect. Allison helped us to feel so at home. It’s a very cozy, special place with a fantastic location close to everything downtown. We can’t wait to come back!”

“Our wedding celebration culminated in an unforgettable post-wedding brunch yacht cruise from Boston to Nantucket, where our guests indulged in an enchanting experience with the help of The White Elephant. Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, our exceptional wedding planner demonstrated unwavering expertise, deftly orchestrating a truly unforgettable experience in collaboration with the esteemed staff of The White Elephant. Through meticulous negotiation, she secured preferential rates and terms with remarkable expediency, solidifying the arrangements within a mere 12-hour window – a testament to her professionalism and The White Elephant's flexibility.

Upon arrival on Nantucket's picturesque shores, our guests were whisked away to Jetties Beach via luxury golf carts, courtesy of The White Elephant's impeccable staff. Soft sand, gentle waves, and refined amenities converged to create a serene haven. Under bright blue skies and perfect temperatures, our beachside retreat unfolded with elegance. Picnic-style setups, adorned with exquisite white orchids and handmade Nantucket baskets, were thoughtfully appointed with gourmet snacks crafted by The White Elephant's culinary team, personalized, monogrammed water bottles bearing our distinguished initials, plush pillows, cream colored umbrellas, and sumptuous blankets inviting relaxation. Softly scented SPF 30 coconut sunscreen was also provided. A private beach-side sound bath experience, led by renowned local Reiki expert Wendy Murrell, further enhanced the ambiance of refined tranquility. This hour-long, immersive journey promoted profound relaxation and balance. Following our guests' departure via private plane from Nantucket Memorial Airport, my husband and I savored an intimate sunset couples' photography session on picturesque Coskata Beach. Renowned photographer Mario Testino, secured through our wedding planner's expert connections, captured the essence of our newlywed bliss against Nantucket's breathtaking backdrop. Although Annie Leibovitz was initially unavailable due to scheduling conflicts, our wedding planner's expertise ensured a seamless transition. Mario's lens immortalized the magic of our newlywed moment. The White Elephant's staff demonstrated unwavering graciousness, earning accolades from Mario and our guests alike. Their hospitality and accommodation made our post-wedding celebration truly unforgettable. To this day, our wedding remains etched in the memories of our guests as a singularly special experience. We cherish the memories forged on that unforgettable day and extend our deepest gratitude to The White Elephant's exceptional staff. We eagerly anticipate our return for a private getaway, where we look forward to rekindling familiar connections and creating new ones. The White Elephant's dedication to excellence and attention to detail has left an indelible mark on our hearts. Their commitment to providing an extraordinary experience has set a new standard for luxury hospitality. As we reflect on our post-wedding celebration, we are reminded of the transformative power of love, family, and friendship. The White Elephant played a pivotal role in making our special day after truly unforgettable. We look forward to revisiting this enchanting haven, where every moment is a testament to the beauty of love, luxury, and unforgettable memories. Forever grateful, Briana & Ryan”
